Insoluble sulfur CAS 9035-99-8 refers to a solid form of sulfur that is non-volatile and insoluble in water. Although insoluble sulfur can be used as a fertilizer, pesticide, etc. in some cases, its spontaneous combustion and explosive nature make it a hazardous material.
First, the spontaneous combustion of insoluble sulfur is one of the main sources of its danger. Although sulfur itself is not flammable, it is capable of spontaneous combustion under conditions of high temperatures and sparks, producing large amounts of yellow sulfur fumes and toxic gases. This can cause not only fires, but also harm to humans and the environment.
Second, insoluble sulfur also has the characteristic of being explosive. As long as it is stimulated by certain conditions, such as impact, friction, static electricity, etc., explosions may occur. These explosions often lead to casualties and property damage.
As can be seen, although insoluble sulfur has certain uses, its dangers cannot be ignored. Therefore, when using and storing insoluble sulfur, it is important to strictly comply with relevant standards and regulations to ensure its safety and avoid unnecessary accidents.
